Abstract

Cardiac rupture is a fatal complication of transmural myocardial infarction that is associated with high mortality. We describe the successful management of a case of subacute cardiac rupture and cardiogenic shock supported by a percutaneous left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as a bridge to surgery.
